That's the settings I'm starting off with when my relic hunting season starts...no beaches though , just woods.
fwcrawford nailed it. Go with his recommendation and you'll do well on AMI although many, like me, have been priced out of vacationing there. It was a great place to metal detect when it affordable.
So do I turn on all metal mode by using the horseshoe button?
Anna Maria is definitely going crazy price wise. Property taxes, insurance, and the government money grab are the main reasons. My electric bill went from $220 to $420 due to FPL rate hike!
Yes sir.
Yes… all the segments will be dark letting you know you are in all metal mode.
Yes.
I use a PI detector in fresh water lakes near me..have been doing it since 2012.
Love to see the PI and those finds.
After turning it on, the first thing after choosing the search mode is to noise cancel. The all metal button is not important when it is selected.
From detecting for many years on AMI beaches with my 800, the sand there is mineral free. All metal (horseshoe ON) in the water and on the wet or dry Sand. Set your GB manually to 0 and go detecting. 0 for dry, wet and in the water. I use 2 tones, Beach 2 in the water and dig everything that isn't giving you an iron tone. I use Beach 1, 5 tones on the dry and wet sand. Good luck.
